Dr. Sam’s favorite part of pediatric dentistry is the energy and FUN kids bring to the office every day.
DR. SAM
DDS
Dr. Sam has wanted to be a dentist since she was in middle school. She has always been one of those weirdos that love teeth, so dentistry was an easy decision! She was born and raised in a small town near Buffalo, NY and didn't even know pediatric dentists existed until applying for dental school. After just a few rotations in dental school working with children and patients with special needs, Dr. Sam knew she was going to specialize in pediatric dentistry. Dr. Sam’s favorite part of pediatric dentistry is the energy and FUN kids bring to the office every day. There’s never a dull moment at work and she loves getting to laugh with the kiddos and build long lasting relationships with them and their families!
